When the pilot first aired.


Did anyone notice Nibblers shadow under the desk, did you feel really confused saying what the hell is that?

reply

No, I watched it the night it aired, but like 99.99% of the audience, didn't notice it until years later.

Anyone here mentions Hotel California dies before the first line clears his lips.

reply

Did original pilot have the shadow or was it Lucased after?

reply

Supposedly, it was always included.

But, I don't know if this was Lucased in later. Most people weren't going to pick up on it, since Nibbler was not a known character yet and that piece of the story of course wasn't revealed.

reply

I'm sure if you could get an original version you could confirm it, because i did notice some differences between the VHS and DVD versions of some episodes.(sorry it's too long ago to remember specifics)

Did anyone notice these other things when the show first aired?
